LiberTEAS drank Emerald Needle by thepuriTea

Thank you to TeaEqualsBliss for sending me some of this tea. I tried to locate it on thepuriTea’s website but did not find it. Perhaps it’s been discontinued, that would be a shame, because this tea is really nice.

It is sweet and vegetative, with an earthy quality to it. Very creamy! I taste floral notes in the background and even a hint of sweet, toasted nut in the distance.

I like this one a lot!

Hi There,

I’m glad you liked the tea, unfortunately I decided to discontinue it. I’m working on sourcing more Green teas. Will keep you posted when we have some new Greens.

Best,

I totally understand. It is a good tea though, and I’m really happy I had the chance to try it. :)

Bio

I am obsessed with tea!

I am a co-founder of the SororiTEA Sisters:
http://sororiteasisters.com

I also review teas for the Tea Review Blog:
http://www.teareviewblog.com

In addition to my passion for tea, I am also a mixed media/altered arts artist. You can see some of my art here: http://eccentricpastiche.blogspot.com

I am also a self-proclaimed foodie. I review local restaurants and the food I buy online here: http://hungryinportland.wordpress.com

My favorite teas are Yellow Teas with most Oolong teas at a close second. As far as “flavored” teas go, I love Earl Grey, Chocolate and Jasmine teas.

I also am intrigued by flavored teas with an unusual or unique flavor combination.

I don’t do a whole lot of swaps anymore, however, I do occasionally sell sampler boxes here: http://liberteas.teatra.de/ I don’t always have sampler boxes available as it depends upon how much time I have as well as packaging supplies. I usually post at least one or two sampler boxes per month, though, so if you’re interested, keep an eye out or PM me and I’ll let you know when I have some posted.

Most of the teas that I record in my notes here are going to have a fairly high rating from me. This is not because I am not discerning, but because I do not usually waste my time on drinking tea I do not care for, nor will I waste my time on writing about it.
